Description

Take the maths classroom outside and watch it come alive with patterns, textures, colours and quantities of the natural world. Juliet Robertson's Messy Maths offers a rich resource of ideas to inspire hands-on maths experiences that deepen children's understanding of maths.

By embracing the messy, real-world connections that maths has with the outdoors, you can lay the foundations for more complex work as children grow and develop. This book provides a treasure trove of suggestions to blend outdoor learning into your teaching practice, with ready-to-use games and open-ended ideas designed to help children become confident and skilled in thinking about, using and exploring abstract mathematical concepts.

With topics ranging from numbers to measurement, pattern to data handling, Messy Maths is a practical and inspiring resource for teachers looking to bring maths to life in the classroom.
